It's a fun website. You should definitely check it out.

Thanks for coming by, Lydia!

It's a great little magazine, isn't it? I always get good recs from it. I've been missing it over the course of the pandemic, so I was super excited when I went to the library the other day and they had both the current issue and several months' worth of back issues. I was so happy :)

Thanks for stopping by, Leah!

Book bloggers are the best :)

Thanks for coming by, NickiMags!

I should probably just stay away from Edelweiss and NetGalley altogether, but combing through them is SOOOO addicting! It's just fun to see what's up and coming, you know?

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Sam!

Ha ha. You wouldn't believe how many strangers' vehicles I tried to get into when I first got that van! It's a VERY popular model around here :) Now, I check the license plate before I try the door. LOL.

Love you, Pee Wee!

Ooooh, what's The StoryGraph? I've never heard of it before. Heading over there now ...

THanks for coming by, Nicole!

Right? Mine just barely opened up for "Pop In Pick-Up" where you can go inside the library to get your holds and browse a small selection of books. It was nice to be back inside the library, even if it wasn't the same as having it fully opened. One of these days ...

Thanks for stopping by, Cindy!

There's a lot of content on their website. I don't know if everything that is in the magazine is on there or not, though ... you should check it out!

Thanks for coming by!

Oh, really? Just now? Our library has been doing curbside pickup since May or so. Pop-in pick-up is in addition to curbside. They're saying they will be able to fully open in November. We'll see.

Thanks for stopping by, Lisa!

YES! I circle books I want to read in both BookPage and Bookmarks. Until now, I hadn't made the connection between doing this and circling in the Scholastic ads when I was younger. So nostalgic!

Thanks for coming by, Resa!

Ha! That is for sure. I've been really trying not to buy more books, but then I just can't help myself ... I have no shelf-control :)

B&N was fine. There weren't many people there when I went and those who were there were all wearing masks and keeping their distance from each other. My next venture will be to my indie bookstore, but since it's about a 30 minute drive, I'm waiting until December when I get my birthday discount. That will help my wallet a *little* bit.

And, yes, I am a NetGalley failure. Ha ha.

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Sam!

Same. I get SO many recs from book blogs. That's why I enjoy visiting them so much :)

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Lark!

For sure! I enjoy all the blogs that I read - it's fun to see the different personalities, reading preferences, creative posts, etc. Book bloggers are the best :)

Thanks for stopping by, Deanna!

Thanks :) I try to be creative, but the juices aren't always flowing from week to week. LOL.

Thanks for coming by, Lectrice!

I just love Book Riot's booklists. They're so fun and I've found some great recs from them.

Thanks for stopping by, JadeSky!

I've been getting it from my county library for years. My city library, however, does not have it so it definitely depends on your library.

Thanks for coming by, Jordan!

Thanks! There are a couple places I didn't mention, but these are the main sources of my book recs - your blog being one of them, of course :)

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Helen!

SO fun! I could spend all day on NetGalley - and sometimes do :)

Thanks for stopping by, Lauren!

Thanks! I used to hate vanity license plates, but I've had fun coming up with bookish ones. READ3R is the one I like best, so I've just kept it. It's a conversation starter for sure :)

Thanks for coming by, Brooke!

Same. WE are my favorite resource :)

Thanks for stopping by, Greg!

It's a fun site! I get a lot of emails from them, but I think that's something that can be adjusted. Enjoy!

Thanks for coming by, Cherry!

An ever-present book in hand should definitely be a big clue!

Thanks for stopping by, Marianne!

Always happy to read your posts.

There are definitely worse problems to have than a never-ending TBR list :)

Thanks for coming by, Lisa!

Aw, thanks! Sometimes great titles come to me, other times ... NOTHING :) I'm glad you love GR too and NG is a great site. I love it.

Thanks for stopping by!

Book blogging people are the best people :)

Thanks for coming by, Deb!

Good point! I actually find a fair number on Overdrive as well. I still prefer paper books, but I'm happy to have access to a huge e-library as well.

Bookmarks is a great magazine. I always find great new book recommendations in it.

Thanks for stopping by, Jen!

Ha ha. I can't be trusted on NetGalley. Or in a bookstore. Or in a library ...

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Katherine!

Book Riot is super fun, isn't it? Edelweiss is a great site, too, although it's not as user-friendly as NetGalley and I feel like fewer of my requests get approved on EW than NG.

Thanks for stopping by, Abigail!
